Gay, Straight, and In-Between cover

Synthesizing many years' investigation into sexual identity and orientation, this book presents Dr Money's formulation of how sexual preference is determined. It includes a review of long-term follow-up studies on pre-natal influences on sexual identity, and discusses gender differentiation in childhood. The book concludes with an examination of the conflict between gender and sexual identities, and a description of the paraphilias. Researchers, clinicians, and graduate students in psychology, biology, endocrinology, psychiatry, and family studies will find this volume of interest, as will anyone interested in gay and lesbian issues.

...a scholarly, personal conspectus of the subject which should be readily intelligible to lay as well as to a professional readership. A glance at the bibliography will deomnstrate the extent of Money's own contribution to the science of sexology' * Cambridge University Press *
